Thank you all for your wishes and support..I had refusals, stucks, silly flag issues, winch recovery and last time a tyre pop out, it taught me many things... I was actually surprised to see the calmness, patience and the support of the team. I am loving this new found sport it is very thrilling and happy I found the right team to learn and grow. Hope I get this support( I am sure of it) in my forward journey and contribute to the community the same way as I recieve it... Looking forward to push myself and my car (he is the one I should thank more for taking all the hit and keep me going forward) to the next level.

Still, it's not advisable. While changing my radiator mechanical fan to an electric fan for a bigger radiator, I had a detailed discussion with few US experts. All said the same for stock (non-racing cars) thermostat is essential. For professional racing cars, they do remove the thermostat as the engine is managed by another more advanced controller which controls the engine jacket temperature based on several data points and open/close valves for optimum performance. But still, coolant gets separated and locked in the radiator for effective cooling, and coolant does get locked in the engine jacket for maximum heat absorption. The bottom line is the coolant that is free-flowing neither gets properly cooled nor absorbs the maximum heat of the engine.

Please listen to @Davie Chase how guiding the FJC getting out of his sideway stuck . Brilliant
